The QRS in lead I, will have a negative deflection in a right axis deviation. The vector is not directed towards the electrode. However, lead AVF will be positive, the vector is directed towards the electrode.

;Iso-electrical
:When the depolarization is perpendicular on the lead, this is called '''iso-electrical'''. The QRS is neither positive nor negative.


 
;Undetermined axis
====Iso-electrical====
:When all extremity leads are biphasic, the axis is directed to the front or back, in a transverse plane. The axis is than '''undetermined'''.
